Chapter 1275 The Shogunate's Onslaught
Soon, the Eightfold Son of God rushed across the Bayun Island with a huge ship.
Kuki Shinobu, Kujo Sara, Ying and others were standing on the first ship.
Yaejinko was a little puzzled. "Why is there no movement at all? They're not attacking the shogunate, nor are they stationed on Yayun Island. Have they given up?"
Kujo Sara looked ahead. The sea outside Kaiji Island was boundless and somewhat calm, but no one knew what strange things were hidden beneath the calm sea surface.
She suggested: "Be careful, the little dragon is very cunning and won't let us capture Haizhi Island so easily."
"Ok!"
Yaejinko nodded, then froze for a moment. "Brahma is full of tricks? Sara, how do you know that? He's clearly a wild dragon, but I've never seen him use his brain."
Kujo Sara said, "Didn't you see that he deceived the Shogun when he was in the shogunate? He manipulated so many people. If it weren't for the Shogun's resourcefulness, the entire shogunate would still be under his tyranny."
Yae Shinko was speechless. Isn't it because everyone is too stupid?
General Lei Dian has the force to suppress a dragon, but her mind is too rigid and she cannot defeat Jing Fantian.
If General Lei Dian could trust her a little more, she would never have allowed the shogunate to be toyed with by Jing Fantian.
No matter what, it was because of the lack of trust in each other that Jing Fantian took advantage of the shogunate.
Ying stepped forward and said, "Okay, let's not talk about what happened before, let's find a way to defeat Brahma!"
"If the shogunate can't defeat Brahma despite this huge advantage, you'll all commit seppuku."
Yae Shenzi laughed and said, "Seppuku? Ying, are you willing to let us, such delicate beauties, commit seppuku?"
Ying glared at Yae Shenzi and said, "Son of Shenzi, be serious. I don't want to be bullied by Brahma."
"Okay, okay, I'm serious. Let me make it clear first, if I win, you have to give me a kiss."
Yae Shinko came to the airport and made her own request.
Ying blushed. This vixen was becoming more and more disrespectful. Perhaps she had been with the evil dragon for too long and had become evil herself.
Seeing that Ying was a little shy and didn't dare to speak, Yae Shenzi shook her hand and acted coquettishly: "Please? Please? Give me a little reward?"
Ying couldn't resist the coquettishness of Yaezun Shenzi. If Yaezun Shenzi had begged her not to go in when she was entering the Pure Land of One Heart, Ying might have stayed in the human world.
"Son of God, you promised to win."
Although Ying had little identification with the war between the Shogunate army and the rebels, he even felt that it was dispensable.
Could it be that if the rebels could reach the castle tower, General Raiden would be able to change Eternal's will?
It's impossible. He fought with her in the Dream Paradise for 500 years, and in the end, it was only thanks to the turnaround brought by Jing Fantian and Ying that General Lei Dian was able to change.
Ying guessed that if the rebels dared to enter the castle tower, General Raiden would personally take action and kill all the rebels.
However, Ying is officially the general of the shogunate. If the shogunate army is not strong enough and is easily defeated by the rebels, she will lose face.
If the news got out, what would others think of her? What would the Seven Gods think of her?
If the gods bring this up as an excuse at the next Banquet of the Seven, Ying will have to find a hole to hide in.
Yaejinko nodded to Ying: "Don't worry, the shogunate's hard power is far superior to Haizhi Island. If it is a positional battle, the resistance army can still defeat the shogunate army by relying on the terrain advantage."
"But in a naval battle, the rebels' ships are no match for the shogunate's. All they can do is a small-scale suicide charge like the one Xin Hai did."
Ying said, "It's better to be serious. Although Brahma is bad, he is not stupid. He is so confident, he must be sure of something."
Yaejinko snorted, "If it's a contest of strength, I'm no match for him, but in terms of wisdom, he won't be able to defeat me. The fleet will attack and develop Haizhi Island."
"I want to see what he's up to."
The shogunate's fleet crossed Yae Island and entered the outskirts of Kaiji Island, touching the defense line set up by Xinhai.
Ever since being defeated by Yae Shinko's ships and artillery, Xinhai has been thinking about how to restrain the shogunate army?
Xinhai’s first consideration was the weather. The shogunate army’s large ships were still wooden ships, and it was impossible to be 100% enclosed.
Explosives made from Fire Slime will become duds if they come into contact with too much water.
In heavy rain and fog, large ships have poor visibility and are not easy to detect hostile targets.
Xinhai is a military strategist like Takenaka Hanbei. Although he cannot borrow the east wind or control thunder and lightning, he can also control the weather based on astronomical phenomena.
There are also some mysterious witches in the Coral Palace who can control the weather when they gather together.
But this war clearly involved the intervention of the mysterious forces, so if it did, it would be a battle between gods, and there would be no training in cultivating war consciousness at all.
Xinhai observed the sky at night and knew that there would be heavy rain the next day.
It just so happened that it rained heavily on the day the shogunate army attacked Kaijima. Yae Kamiko ordered her troops to stay on Yae Island and wait until the rain stopped before attacking.
Xinhai took this opportunity to send a small force to attack the shogunate army's large ships. They were all suicide attacks, and two large ships were actually destroyed by the rebels.
Yae Shenzi was very confused: "Is this the only attack? It can only delay us temporarily!"
Yae Shenzi had no idea what Xinhai was planning, and her attack was clearly lacking in substance.
The biggest impact on them is that it is the rainy season now, and heavy rain falls from time to time.
The Eightfold Divine Son asked Ying, and Jing Fantian did not cheat to make it rain, it was all simulated natural factors.
When the weather cleared up, Yae Shinko ordered the fleet to set sail.
When passing some small reefs in front of Haizhi Island, they hit a mine and blew up two ships.
Yae Shinko Ichiban asked Kujo Sara Ichiban to investigate, and only then did they realize that Xinhai had used fire slimes to make many mines and placed them on the outskirts of Kaiji Island.
If Yae Shinto insists on rushing in, the fleet will suffer heavy losses.
So Yae Shinko ordered mine clearance.
Xinhai used mines to delay the shogunate army for more than ten days, but the shogunate army finally rushed into Kaiji Island under the steady advance of Yae Shinko.
Yae Shenzi already felt that the resistance army was powerless to turn the tide: "Haha, Xinhai, Brahma, just come out and surrender, the victory is already decided!"
Xin Hai appeared on a hill with the resistance soldiers. She responded to Yae Shenzi: "Master Gongji, we have not lost yet. The resistance will fight to the last moment."
Yaejinko sneered: "Want to play a positional battle? The samurai trained by the shogunate for many years are not something you fishermen can contend with."
"Sa Luo, it's your turn!"
"As ordered!"
Kujo Sara landed on Kaiji Island with heavily armored warriors.
The Coral Palace is located in the center of the Sea Island, and large ships cannot enter it. The only way is to rely on the warriors to use force bit by bit to conquer it.
However, there are artillery support from large ships behind, which can attack the Coral Palace.
Kujo Sara finally found her place to use her skills, and she was still better at leading the warriors to charge.
Xinhai did not confront her head-on. There were many traps set by the rebels outside the Coral Palace, and the shogunate army needed to eliminate them one by one.
"Damn it! Are the rebels a bunch of rabbits? They've already reached our doorstep and they're not fighting us head-on."
